SYMPTOMS
When attempting to export tables that contain lobs, the following errors occur:
- using DataPump export, EXPDP:
Processing object type DATABASE_EXPORT/SCHEMA/POST_SCHEMA/PROCACT_SCHEMA
ORA-31693: Table data object "HARVEST"."HARVERSIONDATA" failed to load/unload and is being
skipped due to error:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEPOPULATE callout
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number with name "" too small
ORA-22924: snapshot too old

- using original export, EXP:

. . exporting table HARVERSIONDATA
EXP-00056: ORACLE error 1555 encountered
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number with name "" too small
ORA-22924: snapshot too old

CAUSE
The cause of these errors could be a LOB corruption. Maintaining the LOBs will solve the problem with Exp/Expdp.

SOLUTION
The script below can always be used to detect the lob corruption

1. Run the following script against the LOB tables in order to check for corruption:
set serverout on
exec dbms_output.enable(100000);
declare
page
number;
len
number;
c
varchar2(10);
charpp number := 8132/2;
begin
for r in (select rowid rid, dbms_lob.getlength (<your_clob_column>) len
from
<your_table_with_clcob_column>) loop
if r.len is not null then
for page in 0..r.len/charpp loop
begin
select dbms_lob.substr (<your_clob_column>, 1, 1+ (page * charpp))
into
c
from
<your_table_with_clcob_column>
where rowid = r.rid;

To solve the issue:

- Restore and recover the LOB segment using physical backup.
Or:
- Empty the affected LOBs using the UPDATE statement as mentioned in the Note 787004.1 and Note 833635.1
